Turn On Windows Startup Sound In Your Windows 10 Computers In Just A Few Steps
Turn On Windows Startup Sound In Your Windows 10 Computers In Just A Few Steps-December 2024
Dec 13, 2024 9:37 AM

Remember there was a time before Windows 10 when starting up our computers meant hearing an iconic Windows Startup sound that all of us associated with Windows or looking at our desktop screens? You could be at a bar, and if the Windows Start chime played, you would always think that someone just started their computer. Well, sadly, the sound existed on Windows 7 and versions older than that.

However, the best thing is that the chime wasn’t exactly removed. The newer versions had the sound disabled, but you can turn it back on if you want. In just a few steps, I will show you how to turn the sound back on. But if you don’t like it anymore, I can show you how to disable it as well.

Enable Windows Startup Sound

Step-1: Go to the Start Menu and Click on the Settings cog. (Shortcut Keys: Win + I)

Start Menu-Settings

Step-2: When the settings screen opens up, click on Personalization.

Step-2: Click on Personalization.
